Event coins

[excaliber7388]

Here's what I have so far for an event coin script. The only problem is, instead of adding the event coins to another player, it adds it to your own couunt! whats wrong? (this is a two part script, the first part is the part that makes the event coin, the second is the part for the player to recieve it)

NPC Code:

---

if(actionserverside){

  if(strequals(#p(0),EC)){

    with(getplayer(#p(2))){

      setstring clientr.eventcoin,#v(strtofloat(#s(clientr.eventco  in))+1);

      setstring server.eventprize,#v(strtofloat(#p(3)));

      savelog2 StaffToollog.txt,Staff="#p(1)" Added Eventcoins To Player="#p(2)"

      Ammount="#p(3);

    }

  }

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

if(playerchats){

  if(strequals(#t(0),/addeventcoin)){

    triggeraction 0,0,serverside,Events Team/Coin system,EC,#a,#t(1),#t(2);

    triggeraction 0,0,serverside,-eventcoinsystem,ECup;

  }

}



if(weaponfired){

  say2 say /addeventcoin "account"#b

to give that player an #b

event coin. #b

Do not abuse this, it is watched.;

}

---

now the part for the player:

NPC Code:

---

if(actionserverside){

  if(strequals(#p(0),ECup)){

    setstring clientr.eventcoin,#v(strtofloat(#s(clientr.eventco  in))+1);

    triggeraction 0,0,clientside,-eventcoinsystem,text;

  }

}



//#CLIENTSIDE

if(actionclientside){

  if(strequals(#p(0),text)){

    setplayerprop #c,Got an event coin!;

  }

}



if(created || timeout){

  showimg 3111217,dr-eventcoin.png,15,130;

  changeimgvis 3111217,5;

  showtext 3111218,28,135,Arial,b,#s(clientr.eventcoin);

  changeimgvis 3111218,6;

  changeimgcolors 3111218,0,0,0,1;

  changeimgzoom 3111218,.8;

  timeout=.05;

}

Because when you trigger -eventcoinsystem serverside, it's still doing it for the player activating it.
Also, is it just me or does this script seem really redundant? Wth is server.eventprize string for? According to syntax, it doesnt get set to anything.

no, I changed this a lot, origionally it would boost the event coins by the said ammount, but then I realized that this could be abused, so I changed it to only one per event won. And how do I cange it so it happens to the other player, not the events team member doing it.

Also, what you are doing could easily be done in 1 script.

[excaliber7388]

true, but the second script is for displaying the event coins in the corner. And wouldn't it still do it for the player activating it if it were clientside?

gah, this ugly code makes me love gscript2 soo much more. I'd just do players[index].clientr.blah++; Don't you just love it? I actually never learned that in gscript1. GScript1 is just too damn confusing. GScript2 improves Massokre as a scripter.

• Player's chat can be set serverside - no actionclientside needed
• Do you really need to redraw the event coin count every 0.05 seconds?
• As Maniaman said, this could be easier done in one script, and just using a check of some description to filter out staff from players

Still gives the event coin to the person who says it x_X
